Well, I have finally joined. I've been reading posts for about an hour, and decided to say hello.
This is sooo hard! I've never been a "quitter" but it's a must. I've smoked since 17. I don't know about y'all but I like to smoke, I just can't anymore.
Cigarettes should just be considered a narcotic. They're toxic and they make us do things like go out in the pouring rain, they're perfect after a meal, great after using the restroom, satisfying after sex, - relief when I want to cry, a great excuse to step out of the office and a great compliment to a good drink!
I can go on and on. And it seems like everything is a trigger to want one. I can't wait for the day when the strong urges go away!
Sheeesh, I could smoke to that!
